(57) An electronic test system (100) that distinguishes erroneous and marginal results
includes a memory (101) and an electronic processor (102) for controlling the execution
of the test, obtaining test results and generating test results. The test results
include a determination (330) of whether the condition of the test datapoints is pass,
fail, error or marginal, where pass indicates that the DUT has met a specification,
fail indicates that the DUT has not met the specification, error indicates that the
test system or interface to the DUT has failed, and marginal indicates that the system
is marginally within specification. The test results are displayed on a graphical
user interface (300). The test system provides the ability to control the progress
of the test system based on the results. For example, the system can be programmed
to stop on erroneous results, marginal results, failed results, combinations of the
forgoing, or stop after each measurement. When the system stops, a drop-down window
(600) appears explaining the reason for the stoppage.
